»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp Procedure Code is a 4-digit Code and is declared in DE 1/10.

Procedure Codes are made up of 4-digits that provide information about:

• »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp procedure that the goods are being entered to
• Any previous procedure that the goods were held under
• »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp type of declaration or movement taking place.

For import and export declarations:

• »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp 1st and 2nd digits identify the procedure the goods are being placed into (the requested procedure), for example 40 to indicate a release to free circulation
• »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp 3rd and 4th digits identify, if any, the procedure the goods were last declared to (the previous procedure), for example 71, to indicate the goods were previously held in a customs warehouse.

For Customs Clearance Requests (CCR made using a C21 data set):

• »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp 1st and 2nd digit will be 00 to indicate a clearance request is being made
• »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp 3rd digit will indicate what type of movement is taking place, e.g., 1 indicates an export clearance request
• »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp 4th digit will indicate the reason for the clearance request, e.g. 6, a request to release goods under a transit procedure

Other procedures:

Final Supplementary Declarations (FSD) and Bulked Import Reduced Data set (BIRDS) declarations are also identified by a Procedure Code, however, these are standalone types of declarations that only have a single Procedure Code option and do not follow the rules above.

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp Index Lists of which 4-digit procedure codes can be used are provided in Appendix 1 for the each specific movement type. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp Index Lists can be found in the first link of the page for each Appendix 1.

Requested Procedures:

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp first two digits identify the procedure the goods are being placed into. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýappse are restricted to certain Movement Types and Declaration Categories, please see sections CDSSG04330, CDSSG04340 and CDSSG09030 for more details.

Only certain combinations of 4-digit codes are permitted. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýappse are listed under the Requested Procedure Series within the Appendix 1 Index Lists for the specific Movement Type.
